Les Supremes

This was a great movie. At first I thought it would be too long. I didn't even notice the 2 hours because it kept up the pace. It's about life, it's ups and downs. I didn't have any expectations and I loved how it moved through the years. I thought it would be sad; however, I could relate to the plot. The actors were great, some very funny scenes...sad too. It's a great watch if you like really really good movies that are not fairytale-ish. And movies that have great endings where life goes on, good and bad. Hidden gem that I can rewatch and still love this movie. I recommend watching, it's worth it.

I watched this film in my college class, it's a course where we watch all kinds of movies. This is a movie I probably wouldn't have watched had it not been for the course, I'm a 30 y/o guy that typically goes for the action, sci-fi, thriller type of flicks.

It started off with some scenes that I felt like I'd seen before in other movies but around 20 mins or so in the film really came alive. I started to actually care about the characters. This film takes place in 2 timelines, one where the cast is in their early 20's and one where they are in their early 50's. While the younger actresses held their own it was their older, veteran counterparts that really drew me in. Their acting and chemistry was top notch. Yes there were some corny parts and I understand why the rating is in the 6's but man their ability to deliver on emotional scenes nearly had me in tears like three times. Yet the film never felt too heavy, it would get deep when necessary then lighten back up like a rain cloud dispersing for the sun.

I'm glad I watched this one, I enjoyed it so much I recommended it to my mom and she really loved it. IMDB only lets you give whole numbers but I'd say it was a 6.8/10, which for me is a pretty solid score.

I just finished watching this movie and I had to race here to see what score it received on IMDB. Today is 8/24/24 and it's a 6.9. It deserves a higher score. This movie was amazing. All 6 women, the ladies that portrayed the younger versions of the main characters and the women that played the modern day version were phenomenal. I laughed and cried multiple times. It was entertaining from the beginning to the end of the movie. They captured grief, betrayal, love and struggles so beautifully. I felt like I was watching people I knew. After the movie my heart felt so full. This movie should have been in movie theaters. I would have paid to go see it. I know I'm going to tell everyone I know to watch it. I highly recommend it.

Loaded with an amazing cast that has such a huge body of work I'm not surprised I enjoyed it. But as a movie I felt it was a little rushed through the story. This heartfelt story of three strong women from their birth and upbringing to their older years has been a welcomed viewing.

The tragedy and triumphs depicted are some that many of us can relate to and though the story skims over some of the emotions one may feel, I think the film hits its mark. If this movie were to be made with the same cast and crew into a miniseries, of six or more episodes, I would give it a 10 out of 10. Perhaps they thought people wouldn't embrace a series and felt cutting it down to two hours would be more agreeable for most viewers.

This beautifully shot movie has it all. The beginning felt a little choppy to me, but once you get into the story, you can't help but get invested. The characters were all well thought out, and showed some of the best and worst of humanity. It had me laughing out loud and ugly-crying, sometimes at the same time. And how they jumped around in the time periods was never confusing. Now I need to go find the book because if the movie was this beautiful, I'm sure the book is even better. Why some of these actors didn't get Oscars for their performances is beyond me. All around a very beautiful and well-made movie.
